| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On the 5th. of september i was traveling home from dayton, oh on i70 and just as i was coming into indianapolis, in. my 2006 jeep liberty crd had a failure in its transmission that caused me to temporary lose control of the car. i was driving at the speed limit of 65 to 70 mph and all of a sudden there was a very loud klunk and the cars speed dropped from about 65 mph to 40 to 35 mph almost instantly and that's when i almost lost control for just about a second. i check and there was no cars either behind or to either side of me, which was lucky for me because if a car or semi would have been behind me i would not be here writing this. i pulled over to the right hand lane and started to leave the road for the shoulder. then all of a sudden my car started to drive normally again. i drove at a reduced speed for awhile and did notice that ther was a slight transmission shudder. this went away after a few minuetes and i was able to drive home to florissant missouri without futher trouble. i would like to say that i have checked with other's who own libertyi's and several of them have had the same problem. though their's was not as harrowing as mind. i took my jeep jiberty down to the dealer's the following day and left it there. that was two days ago and they are still working on it. i will be seeing the service rep. tomorrow and will finding out a little more about what happen. i do know that this it seems to be a ongoing problem with the 5 speed automatic traansmission with a transfer case. thank you for reading this. james e. friese, 115 st. benedict lane, florissant, missouri, 63033, pn. 314-837-3885. *nm |
